I believe it's the questions we do not ask of ourselves that can inhibit us the most.
The unexamined life is not worth living, eh?
In Arnold Schwarzenegger's new book, he makes an interesting point. He claims that most people are scared to look themselves in the mirror, to make eye-contact with themselves, because they are disappointed with their choices in life and looking in our eyes makes us confront that uncomfortable fact, so many look away.
I agree with that. Most people don't ask any questions of themselves as you do, and they just wander through life with eyes closed, disappointed with how it's going but unable or unwilling to examine their decisions or guide their future actions with questions.
Most people will never truly gaze into their own eyes in a mirror I think they find it confronting, there's nowhere to hide...although for me I feel there's a lot to be found there. Like with the questions I mention and the honest answers...there's value in it.
Anyway, I'm gazing at bed now, after a super-tiring week, and the weekend is ahead so it's all good for me.
Have a great weekend.
You too. Have a great one!
